Top Penang State Museum Hotel Reviews

The Prestige Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is a nice upscale hotel right next to Georgetown and in particular quick access to a large number of Michelin rated restaurants. It is also very close to a variety of historic sites that you can easily walk to. It has a lovely roof top infinity pool overlooking the straight. The hotel rooms are all super clean and well appointed and modern. The staff was always very helpful and got to know us by name. It is also far enough from the more touristy party centres so that you feel like you are visiting and not touring. We walked to other hotel areas to see if they might be better but we concluded that when we return to Penang, we will stay at the Prestige again."

Le Dream Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Surrounded with good food"

Eastern And Oriental Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall it was excellent stay, though the reception and the concierge were most of the time occupied, most of the time, 1 person at the reception, and 1 or none at the concierge, so it was not so convenient to sort out a few minor issues. Nice view from the balcony, good foods and service and pleasant pool and gym."

Muntri Grove

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious comfortable room with decent air conditioning and spotlessly clean. Good and adjustable shower with huge shower room and nice sitting area in the room. Staff were always helpful and friendly, and there good recommendations for dining and spa treatments. Free ice cream available in the pool area and filtered water available to help yourself. A great location for exploring Georgetown. Music from local bars carried at night but generally stopped by 1am latest and didn’t stop us sleeping."

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Qing Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully restored - heritage exterior with mod cons suite. Staff were attentive & very obliging. You get what you pay for with this boutique hotel The hotel gets the big things right. There were a few things that could be improved: • The hotel has a 24-hour front desk & advised us to leave the room key with them when we go out. However, on our return, the front desk wasn’t manned. We had to wait some 10 minutes before a staff member appeared. A simple bell or alert system when a guest is waiting at the front desk would solve the problem • The tea cups in the room were chipped, so was the marble top of the breakfast table"

Cititel Penang

"A beautiful heritage terrace house in a fantastic location in George Town, within walking distance of many attractions. We stayed comfortably for two nights, with three guests each enjoying their own king bed and sharing two well-appointed bathrooms. The furniture, décor, and amenities were all thoughtfully chosen. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a vintage stay full of old-world charm"

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Blue Mansion
